Glow plug connector

摘要

This disclosure relates to a glow plug connector for a sensor glow plug, comprising a housing made of plastic, a plurality of contact elements made of metal, which form contact surfaces bearing against a circumferential wall of the housing, wherein the contact elements protrude on the glow-plug side from a base of the housing. The contact surfaces are embodied as segments of a circle that protrude from a strip-shaped section of the contact elements. This disclosure also relates to a connector for a cylinder pressure sensor for measuring the pressure in a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine.

1. A connector for a cylinder pressure sensor for measuring the pressure in a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, comprising:
a housing made of plastic; a plurality of contact elements made of metal, the contact elements each having two opposing surfaces, the two opposing surfaces being aligned with respect to a plug-in direction of the glow plug, one of the opposing surfaces comprising a contact surface bearing against a circumferential wall of the housing and the other opposing surface comprising an electrical contact surface adapted for electrical connection with a mating connector; wherein the contact elements protrude from a base of the housing and wherein the contact surfaces are formed as segments of a circle and protrude in circumferential direction from a strip-shaped section of the contact elements, the contact surfaces having a curvature that matches the curvature of the circumferential wall.
